Want a better Tie-on Nock? (tutorial vid)
« on: March 23, 2014, 05:59:00 PM »
Well thank Steve Jewett for this one folks as he wanted to share this with me as I was picking up my freshly reworked Herters Perfection Magnum and the two new Flemish strings he made me....and when he mentioned teaching me how to tie a "Nail-Knot" I was like....

"Wait Steve...I've been using "Cinch Knots" when I trouble myself with tie-on's but do you mind if I video and post this so the other guys can see?"

His response...absolutely not...go right ahead...so without further ado?...here ya go folks....a tie-on tip from "The Bushmen" himself...hope you find this useful cause I really like it...maybe because it's so easy a caveman can do it! LOL!

and very functional and effective and I like that...L8R, Bill.

That's different than the way I tie mine, but I like it and will probably try it!

Thanks for the video.

Thanks for posting. Looks like it may be a bit simpler than the cinch knot.   :thumbsup:

For the love of the rainbow knot nooooooo! Thanks for the video. Looks easy I'm gonna try it. This needs to be added to the how to forum.

You're very welcome everybody and happy that I could be of assistance but it's Mr. Steve Jewett who needs to bow for the applause...hopefully he'll drop in here sometime to see how much he's appreciated!  ;)

same knot used for the stop for a slip bobber? If so, someone should market a premade unit like they sell for fishing, just for traditional bowhunters.... It would be set up on a straw that is slipped over the string, slide the tube out and pull tight.  Anyone know what I am talking about? =)
